dynamic translation

dynamic translation

(architecture)

A virtual machine implementation approach,
used to speed up execution of byte-code programs. To
execute a program unit such as a method or a function, the
virtual machine compiles its bytecodes into (hardware) machine
code. The translated code is also placed in a cache, so that
next time that unit's machine code can be executed
immediately, without repeating the translation.

This technique was pioneered by the commercial Smalltalk
implementation currently known as VisualWorks, in the early
1980s. Currently it is also used by some implementations of
the Java Virtual Machine under the name JIT (Just In Time
compilation).

The aging and provisioning features of WorkSpace Manager can also perform dynamic translation of any security and metadata information to allow for bi-directional real-time migration of content between different WorkSite systems.

While Intel has embedded support for its 32-bit line of processors using a different instruction decoder, HP has developed dynamic translation technology for PA-customers wanting to run their old applications on the new generation of servers.

This dynamic translation capability allows enterprises and service providers to easily expand their networks and perform a seamless migration to IPv6 without performing an immediate "forklift" upgrade of their existing IPv4 network infrastructure.

With this new capability of multi-lingual dynamic translation our clients can, now more than ever, rely on InfoWorkSpace[TM] to allow participants to converse in their native languages, thereby creating a much more natural, productive, effective, and friendly environment to share information and collaborate.

This dynamic translation and trafficking capability will enable enterprises and service providers to easily expand their networks and perform a seamless migration to IPv6 without performing an immediate "forklift" upgrade of their existing IPv4 network infrastructure.
